I already stated that i think Stafford is better than Carr. Speak for yourself and I'll speak for mine. If you call legitimate points excuses, then whatever floats your boat.
Then you know its a poor comparison. Excuses are excuses. Carr is who he is. You won't hold him accountable and blame others that's fine. I am basing my opinion on his results from over a decade of failure. You're "looking beyond the results.
